little by little... wiring video of my homemade quadcopter

Should take bets on if it will fly or not.

I say YES!

Maybe it's just the vid, but it seems your soldering technique needs some work.

I have given all the wiring a good yank and nothing has come apart but I am not an expert so any advice is appreciated. What do you suggest?

 

[Jackson]

Especially on the first large clump of wires, seems you needed to a bit more time iron time, so as the solder can completely flow into and fully saturate your joint.

That clip was just a fraction of the time I spent on each joint. I actually worked my way around doing a 360 to make sure the solder went into the strands of wire. I also took a voltmeter and made sure the voltage from the battery match at each strand of wire on the other side. Come to think of it, should I have to check resistance?

You should be fine if voltage matches. Actually, on larger wire like the 10 guage on my 10,000 mah lipo, I crimp the wires - no soldering.
